'A choke collar': Legal analyst nails why Trump ducked pardoning Eric Adams
Former Federal Prosecutor Andrew Weissman claimed there was a simple reason why President Donald Trump didn't outright pardon New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) on corruption charges: control.
"One of the things that's also been striking to me, and I know to you, because I've heard you talk about it, is that he still left the possibility open that these charges could still be filed again in the future," MSNBC host Jen Psaki said of acting U.S. Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove who has been on a controversial firing spree. "And it's important to remind people, because it feels like three weeks has been a year, that Trump had pardoned a lot of people. He could have pardoned Eric Adams, right? But he chose not to. How have you thought about that?" she asked Weissmann.
